Jeremiah 51:29-31

GOD’S WORD Translation

²⁹ The earth trembles and writhes in pain.
The Lord carries out his plans against Babylon
to make Babylon a wasteland so that no one will live there.
³⁰ The warriors of Babylon have stopped fighting.
They stay in their fortified cities.
Their strength has failed. They have become women.
Their buildings are set on fire.
The bars across their gates are broken.
³¹ Runners run to meet runners.
Messengers follow messengers.
They inform the king of Babylon that his entire city is captured.
